Academic and author.
Research on symbols, shinkansen, the JAL123 plane crash, death studies, disaster movies - with focus on Japan.
Also author of three novels so far & writing books about Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
Drifting in the charts until Mike Reed? It was at No.35 before they did the first TOTP of 1984. It jumped to No.6. Then Reed had his rant. Next week it was No.2. Took another week to get to Number 1. Don't give Reed any credit for the song becoming the hit it deserved to be.

Anyway, long story a bit shorter, I got volunteered to get up and sing. Was an amazing experience to sing with a live band. Everybody was very polite about my performance 😂

Today it was 4 hours and 21 songs. Then most stayed for food and drinks. I love these sessions for the great music and fabulous フレンズ I'm making. Then, this was a first, they started seeing if anyone wanted to do some more songs (usually songs are decided a few days/weeks in advance).

The timetable hadn't been updated this morning (they only do a day at a time for some odd reason), hence getting there earlier. In the end it was one of the first to come. Other than the WiFi issues I already posted about, it's great.
